DJI Zenmuse H30T Thermal Compatibility. RDT G2 and FireTrak will both be updated to include this new high resolution thermal imaging sensor by the end of July 2024.

The Zenmuse H30T boasts a high-resolution radiometric thermal camera with a 1280x1024 sensor, delivering exceptional clarity and detail. It can measure temperatures ranging from -20°C to 1600°C (-4°F to 2912°F) with remarkable accuracy, making it an indispensable tool for detecting heat signatures and identifying potential hazards.
